Summer Teen Art Project

Summer Teen Art Project (TAP) is MAM’s dynamic arts and leadership program that empowers local teens through collaborative artmaking, environmental education, and community engagement. 

Launched in 2021 with a focus on public art, Summer TAP has grown each year, transforming the urban landscape with bold, youth-driven artworks that highlight Montana’s natural and cultural history. Each summer, TAP brings together high school students from across the Missoula area to work closely with professional artists, Indigenous leaders, scientists, and museum educators.
